If our family has the dining plan (2 adults, 1 child), and we all go to a sit-down restaurant but one adult isn't hungry, can 1 adult and DD order a meal and save the meal from the other adult? Thanks so much. We are in full planning mode for DD 5th B-day.”

Hi Christopher,

The Disney Dining Plan is incredibly flexible. Unless you are at a buffet restaurant or a dinner show, your party of three is welcome to order only two meals. With all the wonderful food available at Walt Disney World, it's easy to imagine a situation where someone in your party may not be hungry. Just let the server know that only two of you will be ordering meals. That will leave an adult table service credit for you to use at another time. Just be sure to use all of your Disney Dining Plan credits before midnight on the night you check out of your Disney resort. That's when they expire.
